Ancistrus sp. “Albino Butterfly Bushynose Pleco” – Small

This pleco is white or yellow in color, because it is an albino variety. Males have the namesake bushy nose, while females may have a few “whiskers”, but much less noticable than males. The “butterfly” variety of this pleco has longer fins than the common variation. This pleco is a particularly good algae eater, and it will nibble at plants if algae is unavailable. You can also feed this pleco frozen foods and sinking pellets, as well as fresh vegetable or fruit matter. This fish is quite peaceful, and will tend to hide during the day, so provide driftwood (preferred) or some other suitable hiding place. Tankmates can be any other peaceful, docile fish. This particular pleco is very difficult to breed.
